[lsst-dm-stack-users] ANN: Summer 2013 Code Release

[Dave Monet]

Thanks to Mario, I think that I have discovered the two layers
of magic involved.

1) ATLAS:  By default, it does not make the .so files.  After
      various false starts, the proper configure line needs to
      look something like
    ../ATLAS/configure --prefix=/home/dgm/linux -Si cputhrchk 0 -Fa alg 
-fPIC
      Then do
    make
    make install
    cd lib
    make shared
    cp *.so /home/dgm/linux/lib (or wherever they belong)

2) numpy:  It appears that it is looking for a specific name
       for libcblas.  In the lib directory, try something like
    ln -s libcblas.so libblas.so.3

After doing these steps, Mario's sequence
	import numpy
	numpy.__version__
	import numpy.core.multiarray
	numpy.core.multiarray.__version__
	numpy.core.multiarray.__file__	
appears to work properly.  I found
      >>> import numpy
      >>> numpy.__version__
      '1.8.0'
      >>> import numpy.core.multiarray
      >>> numpy.core.multiarray.__version__
      '3.1'
      >>> numpy.core.multiarray.__file__
 
'/home/dgm/dm/Linux64/external/numpy/1.8.0+1/lib/python/numpy/core/multiarray.so'
      >>>

Flushed with this success, I did
    > ./bin/demo.sh
and eventually got to the line
    Processing completed successfully. The results are in 
detected-sources.txt.

To the clueless, this last line appears to be success.  Many
thanks to all involved, particularly on T-day.
